As of 2013 Salzburg College has been collaborating with the Intercultural College of the University of Salzburg on a graduate Diploma and M.A. program. The Intercultural College was founded by an ambitious and passionate group of academics from the University of Salzburg and other European universities who share the vision of creating and utilizing intercultural synergies and fostering integration by maintaining and respecting cultural diversity. It is their mission to foster competence to encourage a more diverse society.
At the Intercultural College state-of-the-art research and solution finding are combined with academic programs tailored to educate future experts in intercultural competence. Next to the Master in Intercultural Studies (German and English) and the Diploma in Intercultural Competence (German and English) the Intercultural College also offers tailored workshops through their Intercultural Academy.
I did not really know what to expect coming into this program, but I learned a great deal here. All the faculty I worked with are amazing. The quality of instruction was very good and I really enjoyed all the supplementary cultural information.
